[quote:Anonymous Coward 10280541:MV8xMjU4NTg3XzI5NDkxNjczXzg5RUY5MkQz] Neptune (Chevron) ia a spar platform. All marine traffic is mandated to stay this far as to not hit the cables holding it to the seabed. 2 miles is the distance that the sound from the waling horns on a platform must be heard. [/quote]

After watching the USCG do a HULL INSPECTION on the drilling rig the NEPTUNE in the Gulf of Mexico I noticed that on the site www.marinetraffic.com there was a warning to other ships to "STAY CLEAR 2 MILES"...
Here is a link to the NEPTUNES information and you can see the warning down at the bottom of the page where it says "Destination" is still there...

I have been monitoring the ship traffic in the Gulf of Mexico for months and I have never seen this on any other drilling rigs or ships! I have sent the Marine Traffic website 2 emails inquiring about this and they have not responded... Has any of you ever seen this type of a warning placed on a drilling rig or ship before?
